Simone Leigh, Brick House - Taking its title from the 1977 Motown hit by the Commodores, Brick House, a 16-foot tall bronze bust of a black woman by artist Simone Leigh, will be the first project for the High Line Plinth, a new outdoor art site located at Tenth Ave and 33rd Street. An homage to the fortitude of African American women throughout U.S. history, Brick House will remain on view until 2020.
[ID: A bluish black quilt block. It has a yellow 4-pointed star in the center. Filing the black space are many white birds - doves, possibly. They look like they’re flying towards the star.
In the top left and bottom right corners, it reads “forever remember me as loving you.” The text is white and in caps. /End ID]
